The 628-E8

First published in 1907 The 628-E8 one of the masterpieces of French literature and one of the ever-eccentric Octave Mirbeaus most eccentric works is here presented for the first time in an unabridged English version excellently translated by Colin Boswell. Is it a novel? Is it a travelogue? Is it a diary? While it might be none of these or all of the above it is most certainly a collection of dreams reveries memories impressions and tales which quite frequently have no relationship to or visible link with the countries visited. An experimental work of metafiction far ahead of its time The 628-E8 a literary potion of extreme potency will continue to stun readers more than one hundred years after its original publication with its honest iridescence.
